Selecting data for a restore with a DR image with Plug-in Live Client for Linux

Selecting data for a restore with a DR image with Plug-in Live Client for Linux
1
In the Navigation pane of the NetVault Backup WebUI on the NetVault Backup Server, click Create Restore Job.
2
On the Create Restore Job — Choose Saveset page, select Plug-in Live Client for Linux from the Plugin Type list.
3
To filter the items displayed in the saveset table further, use the Client, Date, and Job ID lists.
The table displays the saveset name (job title and saveset ID), creation date and time, and size. By default, the list is sorted by creation date.
4
In the saveset table, locate the NetVault Backup Client that was configured as the Linux NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client in question, and select the applicable backup saveset — identified by its title, which is the name given to the DR image in the Job Name field at the time of backup.
When you select a saveset, the following details are displayed in the Saveset Information area: Job ID, job title, server name, client name, plug-in name, saveset date and time, retirement setting, Incremental Backup or not, Archive or not, saveset size, and snapshot-based backup or not.
5
When the Linux NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client is displayed in the tree, select the entire DR image.
Although you can double-click it to reveal its individual contents, all data items must be selected for the restore to work correctly. The browse functionality is only intended to allow you to view the contents of the backup saveset — not select individual items for the recovery.
 
* 
NOTE: If a disk is comprised of four primary partitions, the fourth partition is automatically converted to an extended logical partition during the recovery. Having a fourth primary partition inhibits the ability to add more partitions to the disk later. By converting the fourth partition to a logical one, you can use additional space on a hard disk to create future partitions, for example, if the recovery is being performed to disk that is larger than the original. There is no data loss associated with this behavior. You are alerted to this fact during the boot routine in a dialog box of the System Installation for Linux; for details on this process, see Booting the target NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client with the appropriate OS and drivers for use with Plug-in Live Client for Linux.

Setting restore options for a DR image with Plug-in Live Client for Linux

Setting restore options for a DR image with Plug-in Live Client for Linux

On the Create Selection Set page, click to reveal the following fields:

•
Client Hostname: This field contains the NetVault Backup Machine Name of the Linux NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client that was the target of the DR backup.
•
Restore Server Port: This field lets you choose the port for incoming connections on the server. Usually, the default port of 10666 is available. Follow the procedure under Reconfiguring the communication port for the target NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client for use with Plug-in Live Client for Linux (optional) if a different port is required.

Finalizing and submitting the job for a restore with a DR image with Plug-in Live Client for Linux

Finalizing and submitting the job for a restore with a DR image with Plug-in Live Client for Linux

The final steps include setting additional options on the Schedule, Source Options, and Advanced Options pages, submitting the job, and monitoring the progress through the Job Status and View Logs pages. These pages and options are common to all NetVault Backup Plug-ins. For more information, see the Quest NetVault Backup Administrator’s Guide.

1
To save the settings, click Ok, and then click Next.
2
In Job Name, specify a name for the job.
Assign a descriptive name that lets you easily identify the job when monitoring its progress. The job name can contain alphanumeric and non-alphanumeric characters, but it cannot include non-English characters. A maximum of 40 characters is recommended.
3
In the Target Client list, select the NetVault Backup Server from the list of displayed machines to set it as the intended target.
 
* 
TIP: You can also click Choose, and then locate and select the applicable client in the Choose the Target Client dialog box.
Restores must be routed through the NetVault Backup Server to use the necessary components installed there. The setting in this list works in tandem with the value revealed in the Client Hostname field to route the restore properly.
4
Use the Schedule and Advanced Options lists to configure any additional required options.
5
Click Save or Save & Submit, whichever is applicable.
 
* 
NOTE: On completion of this process, the job is added to the NetVault Backup job queue; however, unlike a traditional NetVault Backup restore job, it does not begin running. The steps covered in Booting the target NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client with the appropriate OS and drivers for use with Plug-in Live Client for Linux must be successfully performed before the job begins.

If you attempt a second restore after processing a restore that failed, the second restore might stop responding (hang) when it begins creating the logical volume. If this issue occurs, blank the target disk and run the restore process again.
